the eagles are alright i guess

>>72477606
They're fine. I don't see how people can hate on The Eagles for being corporate trash or something and praise an album like Rumours in the same breath.

>>72477639
why

>>72477665
i have his shoes

>>72477891
They're honestly kind of bland most of the time. Some of their lyricism is fine but overall its just eh.

Hotel California [Asylum, 1976]

Speaking strictly as a non-fan, I grant that this is their most substantial, if not enjoyable LP--they couldn't have written any of the songs on side one without a deep love of their California subject matter. Problem is the transparent insincerity that mars the whole thing--Don Henley will probably sound smug croaking out his last words. I also wonder what Mexican-Americans would think of the accents on the title cut. B

The Long Run [Asylum, 1979]

Not as country-rocky as you might expect--the Eagles are pros who adapt to the times, and they make the music tough. I actually enjoy maybe half of these songs until I come into contact with the conceited, sentimental woman-haters who are doing the singing. I mean, these guys think punks are cynical and antilife? Guys who put down "the king of Hollywood" because his dick isn't as big as John David Souther's? C+

Greatest Hits Volume 2 [Asylum, 1982]

I admit it--this made my A shelves after the Bellamy Brothers softened me up. But that was unjust to the Bellamy Brothers. The Eagles are slimy not smarmy, pulchritudinous not purty, multiplatinum titans not singles artists, pretentious cynics not small-time con men, Topanga Canyon not San Fernando Valley. Sure their tunesmanship, zeitgeistheit, and guitar goodies were fun on the radio. But the next time I weeded my shelves, they were tracked to the reference collection. B-
